Days run 172. Yesterday was overcast with heavy
rain squalls and an uncomfortable swell. Wind eased overnight but we were not
without some heafty lurches. This morning we jybed - that was 5 days on
Port. Hopefully on this jybe till Antigua. We are now on Great Circle heading
with wind 25 off stern making motion much easier. We will cross the
important psychological step of 1000 to go at 1315Z. All systems are
working well with frull tanks - we havnt used the main engine sine leaving
Rubicon and the generator uses very little - and plenty of catering. We are even
allowed to fish again.
No other boats in contact now as we move N of the
ARC track.
Everyone in good form - if we can hold daily runs
we should make Jolly Harbour early Friday.
